data interpretation aptitude questions for competitive exams

Q(16-20). Study the following tab le chart carefully and answer the questions given beside.

Three NGO’s  viz A, B and C of Bhopal receive a certain number of COVID kits from five organizations located at five different cities of India.

In the table given below, the data shows the average number of kits received by each district from each city, ratio of kits received by C and that received by A and B together and also the ratio of kits received by A and B.

CityAverage KitsC/(A + B)A : B
Delhi42001/82 : 3
Jabalpur54001/57 : 2
Mumbai24002/72 : 5
Chennai26501/43 : 7
Hyderabad24202/92 : 7

16. The kits received by A from Hyderabad is what percent of the kits received by B from Mumbai?

(a) 27.5%

(b) 25%

(c) 35%

(d) 33%

(e) 32.5%

Solution: (d)

From common explanation, we have

Required % = \(\displaystyle \frac{{1320}}{{4000}}\times 100=33\%\)

Common Explanation

Total kits received from Delhi = \(\displaystyle 3\times 4200\) = 12600

\(\displaystyle \frac{C}{{A+B}}=\frac{1}{8}\)

Adding 1 on both sides

\(\displaystyle \frac{C}{{A+B}}+1=\frac{1}{8}+1\)

\(\displaystyle \frac{{C+A+B}}{{A+B}}=\frac{9}{8}\)

\(\displaystyle \frac{{4200\times 3}}{{A+B}}=\frac{9}{8}\)

Kits delivered to \(\displaystyle A+B=\frac{8}{9}\times 4200\times 3=11200\)

\(\displaystyle \Rightarrow A+B=11200\)

\(\displaystyle \Rightarrow A:B=2:3\)

Kits received to \(\displaystyle A=\frac{2}{5}\times 11200=4480\)

Kits received by \(\displaystyle B\)  = 11200 – 4480 = 6720

Kits received by \(\displaystyle C\) = \(\displaystyle 4200\times 3-11200=1400\)

Similarly calculating for each state, we get:

17. What is the average number of kits received by B from Chennai and Hyderabad?

(a) 4482

(b) 4223

(c) 4536

(d) 4584

(e) 4566

Solution: (c)

From common explanation, we have

Required Average = \(\displaystyle \frac{{4452\text{ }+\text{ }4620}}{2}=4536\)

Common Explanation

Total kits received from Delhi = \(\displaystyle 3\times 4200\) = 12600

\(\displaystyle \frac{C}{{A+B}}=\frac{1}{8}\)

Adding 1 on both sides

\(\displaystyle \frac{C}{{A+B}}+1=\frac{1}{8}+1\)

\(\displaystyle \frac{{C+A+B}}{{A+B}}=\frac{9}{8}\)

\(\displaystyle \frac{{4200\times 3}}{{A+B}}=\frac{9}{8}\)

Kits delivered to \(\displaystyle A+B=\frac{8}{9}\times 4200\times 3=11200\)

\(\displaystyle \Rightarrow A+B=11200\)

\(\displaystyle \Rightarrow A:B=2:3\)

Kits received to \(\displaystyle A=\frac{2}{5}\times 11200=4480\)

Kits received by \(\displaystyle B\)  = 11200 – 4480 = 6720

Kits received by \(\displaystyle C\) = \(\displaystyle 4200\times 3-11200=1400\)

Similarly calculating for each state, we get:

18. What is the difference between the kits received by A and B together from Delhi and Mumbai?

(a) 5600

(b) 4200

(c) 5240

(d) 5800

(e) 5400

Solution: (a)

Required difference = (4480 + 6720) – (1600 + 4000) = 5600

Common Explanation

Total kits received from Delhi = \(\displaystyle 3\times 4200\) = 12600

\(\displaystyle \frac{C}{{A+B}}=\frac{1}{8}\)

Adding 1 on both sides

\(\displaystyle \frac{C}{{A+B}}+1=\frac{1}{8}+1\)

\(\displaystyle \frac{{C+A+B}}{{A+B}}=\frac{9}{8}\)

\(\displaystyle \frac{{4200\times 3}}{{A+B}}=\frac{9}{8}\)

Kits delivered to \(\displaystyle A+B=\frac{8}{9}\times 4200\times 3=11200\)

\(\displaystyle \Rightarrow A+B=11200\)

\(\displaystyle \Rightarrow A:B=2:3\)

Kits received to \(\displaystyle A=\frac{2}{5}\times 11200=4480\)

Kits received by \(\displaystyle B\)  = 11200 – 4480 = 6720

Kits received by \(\displaystyle C\) = \(\displaystyle 4200\times 3-11200=1400\)

Similarly calculating for each state, we get:

19. What is the ratio of the total number of kits received by C from Chennai and Hyderabad to that received by B and C from Jabalpur?

(a) 97 : 190

(b) 82 : 185

(c) 17 : 52

(d) 32 : 85

(e) None of these

Solution: (a)

Required ratio = (1320 + 1590) : (3000 + 2700) = 97 : 190

Common Explanation

Total kits received from Delhi = \(\displaystyle 3\times 4200\) = 12600

\(\displaystyle \frac{C}{{A+B}}=\frac{1}{8}\)

Adding 1 on both sides

\(\displaystyle \frac{C}{{A+B}}+1=\frac{1}{8}+1\)

\(\displaystyle \frac{{C+A+B}}{{A+B}}=\frac{9}{8}\)

\(\displaystyle \frac{{4200\times 3}}{{A+B}}=\frac{9}{8}\)

Kits delivered to \(\displaystyle A+B=\frac{8}{9}\times 4200\times 3=11200\)

\(\displaystyle \Rightarrow A+B=11200\)

\(\displaystyle \Rightarrow A:B=2:3\)

Kits received to \(\displaystyle A=\frac{2}{5}\times 11200=4480\)

Kits received by \(\displaystyle B\)  = 11200 – 4480 = 6720

Kits received by \(\displaystyle C\) = \(\displaystyle 4200\times 3-11200=1400\)

20. What is the difference between the number of kits received by A from Jabalpur, Mumbai, and Chennai and the number of kits received by B from Delhi, Chennai, and Hyderabad?

(a) 1648

(b) 1556

(c) 1640

(d) 1498

(e) 1784

Solution: (e)

Kits receive by A from Jabalpur, Mumbai and Chennai = 10500 + 1600 + 1908 = 14008

Kits received by B from Delhi, Chennai and Hyderabad = 6720 + 4452 + 4620 = 15792

Required difference = 15792 – 14008 = 1784

Common Explanation

Total kits received from Delhi = \(\displaystyle 3\times 4200\) = 12600

\(\displaystyle \frac{C}{{A+B}}=\frac{1}{8}\)

Adding 1 on both sides

\(\displaystyle \frac{C}{{A+B}}+1=\frac{1}{8}+1\)

\(\displaystyle \frac{{C+A+B}}{{A+B}}=\frac{9}{8}\)

\(\displaystyle \Rightarrow A+B=11200\)

\(\displaystyle \Rightarrow A:B=2:3\)

Kits received to \(\displaystyle A=\frac{2}{5}\times 11200=4480\)

Kits received by \(\displaystyle B\)  = 11200 – 4480 = 6720
